Pane drags stay smooth, long streaming replies no longer bog the window down, git status moved off the main thread, and typing got lighter. Plus workflows you can build without leaving your session, and Cursor sub-agents you can actually watch.
Latestv0.18.0A broad speed pass across pane drags, chat streaming, git, and the editor — plus workflows you can build from the session you're already in.Read entry →
Jaade 0.18.0 is a performance release. Dragging panes and sidebars stays smooth, long streaming replies no longer bog the window down, git status moved off the main thread, and typing in the editor got lighter. Alongside the speed work: build a workflow without leaving your session, and Cursor sub-agents become first-class.
FasterinterfaceDragging a sidebar or pane divider is dramatically smoother — resizing no longer stalls the window while the app re-measures everything behind it, and frames stay steady through the whole drag.
FasterchatLong streaming replies stay responsive: the chat no longer redraws every earlier message on each update, and a message with several Mermaid diagrams no longer appears to freeze mid-stream or flicker between raw source and the rendered diagram.
FastergitGit status now runs in the background instead of on the app's main thread, so large repos and several open workspaces stop competing with the rest of the UI.
FastereditorTyping is lighter — the editor no longer ships the whole file to the language server on every keystroke, and diagnostics stay accurate in files with accented or non-Latin characters.
NewworkflowsCreate a workflow straight from an agent session — describe what you want to repeat, and Claude or Codex drafts it against your real workspace and shows a card you approve inline. New workflows arrive disabled, so nothing runs until you turn it on.
NewcursorCursor sub-agents are now first-class — run three in parallel and you see all three, each with a live transcript and a readable report instead of a raw JSON blob. OpenCode gets the same treatment.
FixedcontextClaude now recovers on its own when a turn overflows the context window instead of stopping at "Prompt is too long", and 1M-context models use their full window rather than quietly falling back to 200k.
Jaade 0.17.4 brings third-party API providers to Codex, just like Claude: aim Codex at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint — Zhipu (GLM), OpenRouter, or a custom URL — sign in with just an API token, test the connection, and pick from your own model list, no Codex login required. The new-tab "+" button gets simpler too, opening its type menu on a single click with "New session…" first.
NewcodexPoint Codex at your own API — aim it at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (Zhipu GLM, OpenRouter, or a custom URL), authenticate with just an API token, test the connection, and choose from your own model list, no Codex login needed.
PolishtabsThe new-tab "+" button now opens its terminal/browser type menu on a single click, with "New session…" listed first — no more long-press.
Maximize the side pane, jump to a workflow's session, clearer notifications.
Jaade 0.17.3 lets you drag the auxiliary pane divider to snap it full-width and back, and adds an "Open agent session" button to workflow question cards so you can jump straight into the run that's asking. Notifications read more clearly — the kind is now a colored pill and the expand chevron only appears when there's more to see — plus a session-timing crash is fixed and the thinking dots animate again.
Newaux paneDrag the auxiliary pane's divider to maximize it full-width, then drag back to restore your previous split.
NewworkflowsWorkflow question cards now have an "Open agent session" button, so you can jump straight to the run that's waiting on your answer.
PolishnotificationsA notification's kind now shows as a colored pill, and the expand chevron only appears when there's actually more to read — no more dead toggles.
FixedchatFixed a crash that could hit when a session had sparse or missing timing data.
FixedthinkingThe animated thinking dots move again instead of sitting still.
Switch Claude providers from the model popup, truer context for custom models.
Jaade 0.17.2 puts your Claude API providers one click away — a gear in the model submenu switches the active provider or adds, edits, and deletes one without leaving chat. Custom-provider models now report their real context window so auto-compact fires at the right point, sub-agent transcripts render instead of an empty pane, expanded thinking follows along as it streams, and the sidebar is a touch tighter.
NewclaudeA gear in the Claude model submenu opens your API providers right there — switch the active provider, or add, edit, and delete one, without opening Settings.
FixedcontextCustom and third-party models now report their true context window — a 1M model no longer reads as 200k — so auto-compact triggers at the right threshold instead of far too early.
FixedchatSub-agent transcripts now render instead of showing an empty pane, and their live panes keep ticking while the run is active.
PolishthinkingExpanded thinking auto-scrolls to follow the streaming text, and a collapsed thinking hint now expands in place.
FixedchatThe live work timer in the session header keeps counting instead of stalling.
UpdatedhistoryHistory rows now show when a session began rather than when it was last active, which reads better at a glance.
PolishsidebarTighter sidebar rows, and a pinned-header count and chevron that line up with the project headers.
Worktree sessions that stay put, workspace-named notifications, a faster boot.
Jaade 0.17.1 makes git worktrees first-class: a Switch to Worktree control in the title bar, and worktree sessions that actually stay in their worktree — file mentions, terminal splits, and aux-pane terminals all resolve there instead of the main checkout. Notifications now name the workspace they came from and expand on click for the full message, the app opens noticeably faster, and switching chat tabs no longer flashes the previous transcript. Plus a snappier command palette, smoother sidebar drags, and Thinking rows that only appear for real reasoning.
NewworktreeWhen a session runs in a git worktree, a "Switch to Worktree" control now sits in the title bar — the mirror of the existing "main repo" chip, so moving in and out of a worktree is symmetric.
NewnotificationsNative notifications now name the workspace they came from, still alert you when an agent finishes in a background workspace, and expand on click so you can read a long title or error in full.
FixedworktreeWorktree sessions stay in their worktree — file mentions in your prompt, terminal splits, and aux-pane terminals all resolve to the worktree instead of leaking back into the main checkout.
FasterstartupThe app opens faster: startup no longer waits on your shell's PATH probe, and heavy pieces like the code editor, math rendering, and the emoji picker load on demand instead of before the first window appears.
FixedchatSwitching between chat tabs no longer flashes the previous session's transcript for a frame before the new one paints.
FixedmarkdownDragging a selection past the edge of a markdown preview no longer sweeps the source pane, table of contents, or file tree into the copied text.
Fixedgithub"Open on GitHub" now links the right file even on a branch you haven't pushed, resolving against the remote's branch or its default instead of returning a 404.
